The global pet rubber toy industry continues to optimize its structure. With its well-developed industrial chain, mature manufacturing technology, and high cost performance, China has become the world's largest producer of pet rubber toys, accounting for 58.3% of global production capacity and leading the industry's development. The domestic pet rubber toy industry exhibits significant agglomeration effects, primarily concentrated in the Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta regions, and cities such as Yiwu, Dongguan, and Shantou. Over a thousand manufacturers are clustered here, covering the entire industrial chain from raw material R&D to mold manufacturing, production processing, packaging, and logistics, forming a clearly divided and highly collaborative industrial ecosystem. In recent years, the industry has accelerated its transformation from OEM production to independent R&D, breaking free from the previous "low value-added, low profit" development dilemma. The export share of high-end pet rubber toys has risen from 18% in 2020 to 35% in 2025, with products exported to over 120 countries and regions worldwide. Meanwhile, the industry's intelligent transformation has accelerated, with manufacturers in core production areas introducing automated production lines and intelligent inspection equipment, resulting in a production efficiency increase of over 18%, a unit production cost reduction of 12%, and significantly improved product quality stability. China's international competitiveness in the pet rubber toy industry continues to strengthen.
